Abstract

Disclosed are certain fluorinated derivatives of Meldrum's acid as novel compounds, preparation methods for the same, their use in Li ion batteries, Li air batteries and Li sulphur batteries as well as solvent compositions, electrolyte compositions and respective batteries containing them.

Description

This application is a U.S. national stage entry under 35 U.S.C. §371 of International Application No. PCT/EP2012/073424 filed Nov. 23, 2012, which claims priority to European patent application No. 11191337.2 filed on Nov. 30, 2011. The entire contents of these applications are explicitly incorporated herein by this reference.
The invention concerns certain fluorinated derivatives of Meldrum's acid, methods for their preparation and their use as an additive for Li ion batteries.
Li ion batteries, Li air batteries and Li sulfur batteries are well-known rechargeable means for storing electric energy. The advantage of this type of batteries is, for example, a high energy density, and they have no memory effect.
Li ion batteries comprise an anode, a cathode and an electrolyte composition containing a solvent, an conductive salt and often additives. The solvent is an aprotic organic solvent which serves to dissolve the conductive salt. See, for example, WO 2007/042471 which provides information concerning suitable solvents. Suitable conducting salts are known in the art. LiPF6 is the preferred conducting salt. Other conducting salts are also suitable as constituent of the electrolyte solutions of the present invention, for example, e.g. lithium bisoxalatoborate (LiBOB), lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI), lithium bis(trifluorsulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) or LiBF4.
Additives improve the properties of the Li ion batteries, e.g. the life of the battery or to reduce the flammability. For example, LiPO2F2 is applicable as additive. Fluorinated organic compounds, for example, fluorinated cyclic carbonates, improve the life of the battery and reduce the flammability of the solvent.
Object of the present invention is to provide further additives for Li ion batteries. This object, and other objects, are achieved by the invention as outlined in the description and the claims.
One aspect of the present invention concerns compounds which are derivatives of Meldrum's acid and are represented by formula (I):
Figure US09825331-20171121-C00001

wherein R1 and R2 independently denote hydrogen, halogen, or linear or branched alkyl group optionally substituted by one or more halogen atoms; and
wherein R3 and R4 independently denote hydrogen, halogen, or linear or branched alkyl group optionally substituted by one or more halogen atom;
provided that at least one of the R1 to R4 is fluorine or fluorinated substituent.
In the context of the present invention, the term “comprising” is intended to mean also “consisting of”. The plural is intended to include the singular, and vice versa.
Compounds of formula (I) are preferred wherein the halogen is fluorine.
Preferably, R1 is fluorine.
Preferably, R2 is hydrogen or fluorine.
More preferably, R1 is fluorine and R2 is hydrogen.
Preferably, R3 and R4 are the same or different and are independently selected from the group consisting of fluorine, methyl, ethyl, and methyl and ethyl substituted by at least one fluorine atom. More preferably, R3 and R4 are independently selected from the group consisting of fluorine, methyl, mono fluoromethyl, difluoromethyl and trifluoromethyl.
Especially preferred compounds are those of formula (I-1), (I-2), (I-3) or (I-4).
Figure US09825331-20171121-C00002
Another aspect of the present invention is to provide a method for the manufacture of the compounds of formula (I).
The manufacture can be performed according to several embodiments. Generally, the compounds may be prepared analogously to the manufacture of Meldrum's acid from a compound with a keto group and malonic acid. Suitable starting compounds having a keto group are especially acetone, methyl ethyl ketone and diethyl ketone; and malonic acid or their halogenated or fluorinated derivatives.
According to a first preferred embodiment, at least one starting compound contains at least one fluorine atom as a substituent; optionally, but this is not preferred, at least one of the starting compounds may be substituted by a halogen atom.
According to a second embodiment, at least one starting compound is substituted by at least one halogen atom which is not fluorine; after the condensation reaction of the starting compounds, the halogen atom, especially chlorine, is substituted by fluorine, e.g. in well-known chlorine-fluorine exchange reactions with fluorinating agents like metal fluorides, e.g. CsF or KF, or HF adducts of amines, e.g. HF adducts of trialkylamines or HF adducts of aromatic amines like pyridine.
According to a third embodiment, non-fluorinated starting compounds are applied, and the resulting Meldrum acid or Meldrum acid derivative are post fluorinated e.g. with electrophilic fluorinating agents, e.g. N-fluorosulfonamides to substitute F for H at the C(O)—CH2—C(O) group. H atoms at the alkyl group or alkyl groups of the O—C(R1R2)-O function can be substituted by F using via electrochemical fluorination or by a reaction with elemental F2, preferably at low temperatures in an inert solvent, e.g. perfluorinated carbon compounds, and using F2 diluted with inert gas such as N2. This embodiment is especially suitable for compounds of formula (I) in which R1 is F and R2 is H or F and R3 and R4 are H or F.
The first embodiment is preferred and will now be explained in detail.
To manufacture compounds of formula (I) in which R3 and R4 are methyl, ethyl, or methyl or ethyl substituted by at least one F atom, compounds of formula (II), R3-C(O)—R4, are applied as starting material. R3 and R4 are methyl or ethyl groups at least one of which is substituted by at least one F atom. These compounds can be manufactured from acetone, butanone or pentanone, optionally substituted by one or more fluorine atoms by electrochemical fluorination as is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,003,807. The process described is that US patent is mainly designed to produce perfluorinated ketones but respective monofluorinated and polyfluorinated ketones are produced, too, and by applying respective shorter reaction times, the yield of monofluorinated or polyfluorinated ketones can be optimized.
Partially and polyfluorinated ketones can also be manufactured from β-ketoester compounds by decarboxylation initiated by acids, for example, by sulfonic acids, mineral acids or trifluoroacetic acid, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,481,029.
Compounds which have a C—(O)—CFH—C(O) group or a C—(O)—CF2—C(O) group in the ring can be prepared by applying monofluorinated or difluorinated malonic acid as a starting material. Monofluoromalonic acid and difluoromalonic acid can be prepared from the respective chlorosubstituted malonic acid ester and fluorinating agents, e.g. using the HF adducts of pyridine, diazabicyclononene (“DBN”) or diazabicycloundecene (“DBU”) with subsequent saponification of the ester groups. The manufacture of mono fluorinated and difluorinated malonic acid esters from respective chlorinated esters by chlorine-fluorine exchange reactions using the adducts of HF and amines as fluorinating agent is described in U.S. Pat. No. 7,145,046 the whole content of which is incorporated herein for all purposes.
Another aspect of the present invention concerns the manufacture of the compounds of formula (I).
According to this aspect, a process, a method for the preparation of compounds which are a fluorinated derivative of the Meldrum's acid having formula (I)
Figure US09825331-20171121-C00003
Is provided, comprising the reaction of malonic acid or fluoromalonic acid having the formula HO(O)C—CR1R2-C(O)OH wherein R1 and R2 independently denote hydrogen, halogen, or linear or branched alkyl group optionally substituted by one or more halogen atoms, with a ketone having the formula R3-C(O)—R4 wherein R3 and R4 independently denote a linear or branched alkyl group optionally substituted by one or more halogen atoms, or to produce compounds of formula (I) wherein R3 and R4 are F, by reacting malonic acid or fluoromalonic acid having the formula HO(O)C—CR1R2-C(O)OH wherein R1 and R2 independently denote hydrogen, halogen, or linear or branched alkyl group optionally substituted by one or more halogen atoms, with C(O)Cl2 or C(O)F2, and reacting the intermediate 2,4,6-trione compound with SF4, or to produce compounds of formula (I) wherein R3 is F and R4 is H, by reacting malonic acid or fluoromalonic acid having the formula HO(O)C—CR1R2-C(O)OH wherein R1 and R2 independently denote hydrogen, halogen, or linear or branched alkyl group optionally substituted by one or more halogen atoms, with C(O)Cl2 or C(O)F2, reacting the intermediate 2,4,6-trione compound with a reducing agent, especially hydrogen, to produce the respective C4-hydroxy compound, and reacting said C4-hydroxy compound with SF4 to obtain compounds of formula (I) wherein R3 is F and R4 is H.
In the following, the manufacture of preferred fluorosubstituted derivatives of Meldrum's acid is described. The starting compounds are esters. They can be hydrolyzed to form the respective acid by basic or acidic hydrolysis. The hydrolysis can be performed as described in DE Offenlegungsschrift 4120704, e.g. from the dimethylester and NaOH in water and subsequent contact with an ion exchange resin, e.g. Lewatit S 100. This step is followed by a condensation reaction which may be catalyzed by sulfuric acid. The condensation reaction can be performed in analogy of the preparation of Meldrum's acid by David Davidson and Sidney A. Bernhard in J. Am. Chem. Soc. 70 (1948), pages 3426 to 3428, and especially on page 3428, left column. If desired, dehydrating agents, for example, acetic acid anhydride can be applied to shift the equilibrium of the condensation reaction.

Figure US09825331-20171121-C00007
The following reaction equation indicates a way how to prepare 2,2,5-trifluoro-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione. The first step provides fluoromalonic acid from the respective diester by hydrolysis. In the second step, 5-fluoro-1,3-dioxane-2,4,6-trione is produced as intermediate compound by reaction of fluoromalonic acid and C(O)Cl2. The last step provides for the desired compound 2,2,5-trifluoro-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione by transforming the keto group into a CF2 group by reacting the intermediate compound with SF4. This can be performed as described in U.S. Pat. No. 2,859,245. Additionally or instead of SF4 (which is a gas), a derivative of SF4 can be applied, especially R2NSF3 wherein R is an alkyl group, especially with 1 to 3 C atoms. A representative compounds is diethylamino-SF3 (“DAST”). Another fluorinating agent of this type is Deoxo-Fluor® which has the formula (CH3OCH2CH2)2NSF3 and is available from Aldrich.
A suitable way to manufacture 2,5-difluoro-1,3-dioxane-2,4,6-trione:
Figure US09825331-20171121-C00008
To obtain 2,5-difluoro-1,3-dioxane-2,4,6-trione, the intermediate 5-fluoro-1,3-dioxane-2,4,6-trione can be reacted with hydrogen to reduce the 5-keto group into a 5-hydroxy group which then can be reacted with SF4 to form the respective C5-mono fluorinated bridging group.
The compounds can be isolated by methods known in the art, for example, by distillation, chromatography, extraction and the like.

EXAMPLE 1 Preparation of 5-fluoro-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione
Figure US09825331-20171121-C00013
2-fluoromalonic acid diethylester is manufactured from 2-chloromalonic acid diethylester and 1,8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]undec-7-ene.1,37HF neat at 80° C., as described in example 2 of U.S. Pat. No. 7,145,046. The raw product is hydrolyzed, in analogy to example 1 of DE-Offenlegungsschrift 4120704, by contacting it with NaOH in water (concentration of NaOH: 30% by weight). Resulting ethanol is removed by distillation, and the resulting solution is contacted with Lewatit S 100 in the H-form (i.e. comprising acidic H+). The aqueous solution of fluoromalonic acid is mixed with toluene, and at a reduced pressure (400 mbar), a water/toluene mixture is removed.
The resulting fluoromalonic acid then reacted with acetone as described by D. Davidson and S. A. Bernhard in J. Chem. Soc. 70 (1948), page 3428, 1. paragraph in chapter “Experimental”. The fluoromalonic acid is suspended in acetic anhydride and concentrated sulfuric acid is added. The amounts of the reagents and starting compounds correspond to those described by Davidson et al.
The acetone is added under cooling. After a post-reaction phase of 2 hours, 5-fluoro-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione can be isolated.
EXAMPLE 2 Preparation of 2,2,5-trifluoro-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione
Figure US09825331-20171121-C00014
In a first step, fluoromalonic acid (which may be obtained as described in example 1) is reacted with C(O)Cl2 under cooling to 0° C. in the presence of triethylamine. Diethyl ether is added, solids (hydrochloride) are filtered off, low boiling constituents (mainly diethyl ether) are evaporated, and the resulting 2-fluoro-1,3-dioxane-2,4,6-trione is contacted with SF4 in an autoclave for 15 hours. Low boiling contents, e.g. SOF2, are removed from the autoclave in a vacuum, and 2,2,5-trifluoro-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione may be isolated.
EXAMPLE 3 Alternative Method for the Preparation of 2,2,5-trifluoro-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione
Figure US09825331-20171121-C00015
In a first step, malonic acid is reacted with C(O)Cl2 under cooling to 0° C. in the presence of triethylamine. Diethyl ether is added, solids (hydrochloride) are filtered off, low boiling constituents (mainly diethyl ether) are evaporated, and the resulting 1,3-dioxane-2,4,6-trione is suspended in perfluorohexane. A gaseous mixture of F2 in N2 (volume ratio 1:4) is passed through the suspension at a temperature of approximately −20° C. until the molar ratio of F2:1,3-dioxane-2,4,6-trione is about 3:1. The flow of F2/N2 gas is stopped, and vacuum is applied to remove low boiling constituents, especially HF.
A mixture mainly containing 2,2,5-trifluoro-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione and 2,5,5-trifluoro-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione is obtained which can be purified and separated for example by preparative chromatography.
